Little drops of rain
Little grains of sand
Make the mighty ocean
And the pleasant land
Little notes that sing
Little words that rhyme
Make the mighty memories
And the dreams of time
Never let a minute
Lie there on the shelf
For there may be in it
All loves life itself
Little smiles of hope
Little drops of tears
Make this thing called love
Go dancing down the years
(Instrumental)
Little drops of rain
Little rays of sun
Make the hopeful rainbow
Glow for everyone
